reversal of fortunes?
instead of inspiring consumption
then supplying the means,
let’s hand out the cash,
praying that they’ll spend it.

Consumption is only attractive
because ’tis far form reach;
had we the lucre,
we wouldn’t use it.

the checks are made out to you and me,
but consumption for its own sake
is tonic only for the purveyors
of things we don’t really need.

It’s not hard cash that burns in pockets
out of the clear blue sky;
it’s advertisers
that set it on fire.
